Actually, there is a Himalayan Salt Cave/Spa nearby in Forest, Virginia.
Have you ever tried reviving yourself in a Himalayan Salt Cave? This is now on my bucket list!
And no, you don’t have to work with a pick and axe to retrieve salt from a mine. You can just sit down and soak up the purified air or get a massage or have a family get-together!
From the London’s Salt Spa Website: “Here is our spacious, relaxing and therapeutic Salt Cave, where you will experience the healing and relaxing power of our pink salt from the Himalayan Mountains. Sit back in our Zero Gravity chairs, relax and breathe while the cave purifies, replenishes, and rejuvenates your mind and body. For the optimal respiratory comfort, we keep the Salt Cave at a stable humidity of 30-50% and temperatures range between 70-74 degrees. Fresh Blankets And socks Are Provided.”
That sounds wonderful Dora, Would’nt mind having a go at that.

I just read last week that there’s also one in Williamsburg. Supposed to be very helpful for respiratory ailments.

Correction: the one in Williamsburg isn’t a salt mine….it’s manmade.

Any kind of relaxing therapy sounds good to me. Spas cost a fortune to attend their treatments; what kind of charge in there to sit in the salt cave?

A possibility for sure!

I like your sense of adventure! I prefer the spa-like comforts of my own home. Apparently we can buy himalayan bath salts. Who knew?

Thanks Kate… I haven’t tested my sense of adventure yet in the salt cave. Did get a Himalayan salt lamp though and I swear it helps me sleep!
